Hybrid Event - In-person & Virtual!

The Premier Event for Leasing and Finance Accounting Professionals

The largest annual gathering of lease accountants and those responsible for financial reporting keeps attendees abreast of developments involving rule-making activities of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, international accounting standard-setters, state and federal tax authorities and other regulatory bodies. The agenda also includes timely sessions on the updated lease accounting standards and multiple sessions ranging from basic lease accounting for the newly hired accountant to discussions of complex and emerging accounting issues and their impact on business practices. A FASB board member participates in the program each year.

The ELFA Lease and Finance Accountants Conference will again be held concurrently with the ELFA Operations and Technology Conference. Both conferences will share a tabletop exhibit targeting companies that provide lease and finance accounting software and other technology-related processes and systems.
